Nvidia patents system to test and tune AI search pipelines
Nvidia describes a system that automatically tests how well AI models find relevant information in large databases. It converts text into mathematical codes, searches for matches, and calculates a score to show how accurate the results are.
In the filing’s own words
Various examples, systems, and methods relate to configuring, executing, and evaluating retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) pipelines. A system can process a configuration dataset defining a pipeline and an evaluation dataset containing content and queries. The system can generate vector embeddings of content using an artificial intelligence (AI) model within the RAG pipeline. The system can retrieve candidate content from a database by performing a comparison between the representations of the query and the stored content. The system can compute a performance measurement based on the retrieved candidate content and provide the measurement as output.
What exactly they claim (claim 1)
1. A system, comprising: one or more processors to: obtain a configuration dataset and an evaluation dataset, the configuration dataset identifying a pipeline and the evaluation dataset comprising a set of content and at least one query; generate, using a first artificial intelligence (AI) model of the pipeline, a plurality of embeddings of the set of content; retrieve, from a vector database, at least one candidate content from the plurality of embeddings based at least on a similarity metric between the at least one candidate content and the at least one query; determine a performance metric based at least on the retrieved at least one candidate content; and provide the performance metric.
